Emacs: Org-mode WikiPedia links

| | Comments () | TrackBacks (0)

The other day I was going through some notes that I organize using Org-mode and I realized that it's a pain in the ass to write up links to Wikipedia entries all the time. So I whipped up some code that adds an org-mode link.

It works in a similar way to other links. You type in wp:Google and it will be highlighted and when you click it will navigate to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google

You can also set which default language you want the link to head to by setting the org-wp-language variable in your .emacs file. The default is "en" which is ENglish and I think that works well for most people.
